Welcome to my botanical arts blog.
I am a botanical illustrator, trained at the Denver Botanic Gardens, in Colorado. I am now a transplant to the gulf coast of Florida. I am discovering tropical gardening.
Illustrating Nature is my passion and flowers are a favorite.

Can you feel "Fall".....?

It's in the air.... I can feel it.....and some of the flowers are beginning to fade. However, the Morning Glory's, the Black eyed Susan's, and the Nasturtiums.... are rockin it!!

I do love this time of year. Things cool down and the baby pumpkins appear under massive leaves. Sleeping with the cooler weather is so lovely..... yes, Fall is near.

As I have said before, this summer has been a great one. There has been enough rain to keep the flowers happy.....enough sun and heat to keep me happy..... and day after day of decent weather. We have had a few crazy showers, thunderstorms, and lightening 'shows'..... but just enough to be interesting. Nothing was overdone, and after the long and cold Winter, it was good for the soul.

So, I grabbed the camera and popped outside for a minute to photograph the back yard. Somehow, I missed uploading the photos of the pumpkins.... but trust me, they are growing by leaps and bounds.

How is the weather changing in your neck of the woods?? Comments are always welcome.
